GorMAE Protein Cheesecake | Low Carb + Low Fat

Friday, August 22, 2014

It is no surprise I LOVE sweets and that is why 90% of my recipes are on the sweeter side. Life should be sweet, even when living a healthy lifestyle and I am sorry but I refuse to live with out cheesecake!

So this fluffy concoction down below gives you everything and more. It is not only spot on with flavor but after a few trial and error attempts I finally found the BEST ration of ingredients to make the perfect cheesecake.... Oh and did I mention you could eat a whole big slice and not feel an ounce of guilt? Actually you could eat 2 slices and still not feel any guilt its that aMAEzing!

This is also so simple you could probably bake it in your sleep.... wait no. Don't try that...

Ingredients

10 oz Fat Free Greek Yogurt

12 oz Fat Fraa Cream Cheese ( room temp )

2 Eggs ( room temp )

1 scoop of Whey Protein ( I use Its About Time Cinnamon Swirl! Get it on sale here! http://goo.gl/tKP0gk )

1/4 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk

2 Dropper fulls of Vanilla Stevia ( you can use powdered as well )

1/4 cup Powdered Stevia

Splash of Vanilla Extract

Now here is where you can take full creative license. I also added in Hazelnut Extract. Since I have been making these weekly as a post workout snack, I will be experimenting with different flavors. So keep your eyeballs peeled for those!

You want to preheat your over to 325 F

In a bowl combine all of your ingredients and blend. You could use and mixer, blender or a fork and some good'ol elbow grease for a killer arm workout.

Spray a 6in ( this is the key to a moist fluffy cheesecake! Use a smaller pan! )

Did you notice this is crustless? I will post a few crust recipes soon but we are keeping it simple today.

Pour the mixture into your sprayed pan, drop it on the counter a fe times to get the air bubbles out. Yes just pick it up and drop it. Just a few inches, nothing crazy.

Now i weigh my final mixture because I am counting my macros right now. Mine came out to about 813 g.

Bake for 30 min, then set your oven to 200F and bake for an additional 50 mins.

Once finished let the cheesecake cool, do not cover it, or it will sweat. Nobody like a sweaty cheesecake.

I put mine in the freezer for 30-45 min then the fridge or you could keep it in the fridge overnight, but nobody's got time fo'dat!

Can you get over those macros!

I have been loving these gluten and wheat free graham crackers to break over the top with some Truwhip or a little fat free Redi Whip! Or sometime for breakfast I will put a no added sugar jelly and some Peanut Butter!
